Classique Blue Ballpoint Pen
The Classique line turns the maison's writing heritage into a blue-lacquered signature pen.
Prices are a snapshot from when this page was built — confirm on the retailer's site.
Story & heritage
S.T. Dupont was founded in 1872 in Paris and grew from travel cases into a luxury house best known for lighters, writing instruments, leather goods and cigar accessories.
The official page says the Classique was the first luxury writing instrument in history and notes its origin in the 1970s, when it was created for Jackie Kennedy.
That makes the line less a product family than a design reference point for the maison's pen business.
Materials & craft
The product page specifies blue lacquer and a palladium finish, with the pen manufactured in Faverges, France.
It is also convertible into a mechanical pencil, which reinforces the modular craft logic behind the object.
How to choose & style
Choose Classique for a desk pen that should feel formal, legacy-driven and gift-worthy.
Among the writing instruments here, it is the most historic and the most ceremonial.
